Supervising Police Commissioner Juanita Matanga is reminding the public to inform their next of kin of their whereabouts.

A MAN who was reported to have gone missing after going on a hunting trip at the Kongulai area, Guadalcanal, last week has been found alive at Betikama on Wednesday.

Supervising Police Commissioner Juanita Matanga said the missing person was found alive and safe behind the Betikama area, Wednesday morning.

In light of this incident, Ms Matanga issued a reminder urging people to always inform family members of their whereabouts or where they are going so that they don’t cause anxiety to their family and relatives.

“When you go about your business, you must always ensure that you communicate with your families,” Ms Matanga said.

“.... your families will be worried about you if you failed to return home.”

The man aged between 30 and 40 did not return home after going on a hunting trip on July 5.

His families and relatives were worried about him and approached the police on July 10 for assistance, to search for his location.

“Yesterday, (Wednesday) about 10am they found the missing person just behind Betikama area, alive and safe,” Ms Matanga confirmed.
